This Association, founded and incorporated in 
1894, has now completed its twenty-first year. It 
has contributed much to public information in 
its chosen field. At its monthly meetings have 
been read and discussed more than two hundred 
specially prepared essays and addresses treating 
of the City of Washington and other historical 
themes. These papers have been historical, bio¬ 
graphical, statistical and descriptive, embracing 
a wide range of information from original sources, 
and personal reminiscences. Most of them have 
been published in book form, in the series entitled 

RECORDS OP THE 

Columbia Historical Society 

already extending to eighteen volumes. A list 
of the subjects treated follows. 

The growing prevalence of the historical spirit 
in America, and especially in the larger cities, 
to which Washington belongs, invites a wider 
extension of the membership of this Society. 

You are respectfully invited to become a member. 



The annual dues of members of the 
(EoUimbia $?ifitoriral £>orirty 

are Five Dollars, with no initiation fee, 
and it is believed that this value is fully 
returned to members, in the interesting 
annual volume furnished to them without 
charge. 

All citizens interested in the past and 
present of the Capital City, the District of 
Columbia, Maryland and Virginia are in¬ 
vited to become members, and to attend 
the meetings on the 

Qmrshay rhrning af rarlj month, from
